A new stage production after online creation and school performances

“Ma_Créature”, a work for children, gives them the opportunity to express themselves non-verbally in response to fear, anger and rejection through theatre, while at the same time addressing their critical senses and imagination. The production began in 2016 in collaboration with France-based dancers Ms Chiharu Mamiya and Ms Delphine Ranson, and has continued through workshops with over 400 children so far. Artist Tabaimo joined the project and although the planned collaborative residency in Kinosaki in 2020 was cancelled, the work continued online in preparation for the theater performance. In addition, a short version of the piece for schools was performed in classrooms of primary schools in France. After the premiere in France on 26 March 2021, the production will tour in 2022-2023 and is also planned to be presented in Japan.
